Summary: Awesome book, beautiful artwork
Review: A friend of mine preordered a copy from the manufacturer, I loved it so much I had to order my own. It's got a ton of info, who knew how many kinds of vampires are out there? Plus, it's worth it for the artwork alone. I'm tempted to tear out some of the color pages when I get my copy and hang them up, maybe I'll have to buy an extra copy!

Summary: Great Vampire Book A must have
Review: I just got this book and it's knocking my socks off. It is so complete and insightful...and has a nice, ever-so-slightly dry humor style to the writing. This is going to help me finsih my own horror novel.

Summary: breath taking
Review: I recieved this book from the author the otherday, Its amazing, I have never seen a vampire book that actually gives a full insight on the undead. Its packed full of weird and intricate myths (or maybe true stories). It has everything and more init. The research put into this book most have been vast. I donated one of my artworks to this book, I am so excited that I am apart of it. You will find my painting on pg 489!! Go and buy this its well worth the dosh!!!

Summary: Vampires 'R Us?
Review: I thought I knew something about vampires, now I know a lot about vampires. This is a well put-together volume for a vast store of information on a fun topic. It's best as a reference book but a great read for Halloween. Since vampires are around all year it pays to keep it close at hand.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: I thought I would go ahead and write a review of this since this is one of those books that you don't necessarily read from front cover to back cover. You're more likely to skip around in a book like this. That's what I've been doing, skipping around, reading what interests me most.

I am a long time fan of anything vampire-related. I read my first vampire book at age 11, and I haven't looked back since. Since then, I have encountered many legends, myths, and beliefs about vampire. This book puts many, if not all, those beliefs in one source. You learn about vampires from different regions of the world from A-to-Z. Vampires aren't the only preternatural presented in this book. You also learn about d'loup garou (werewolf), demons, dhampirs, protective stones, etc.

My only gripe with the book is this. The sections dealing with how vampires are made was a little sparse in my opinion. I did like how he used the lore that different countries believe regarding the making of a vampire, but he only mention in a passing paragraph how a vampire is made due to a bite because there seems to be a lot of different beliefs on how that works as well. All in all, though, this is an excellent book. Very informative and definitely entertaining.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Interesting research! Great art!
Review: I was most pleased with seeing many of my friends and fellows listed in his book, but was somewhat surprised that I was never asked if he could include my name and my work. Nevertheless the book is a wonderful resourse guide and an enjoyable read.

Summary: Great Vampire Book A must have
Review: I would have given it a 4.5 star if they had it. The only reason why I would take .5 away from this book, is the sometime silliness of it. There are a couple to things that I wouldn't agree to but over all a good read.
